OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject:—Fixation of pay on promotion to a post carrying higher duties and responsibilities but carrying the same grade pay.
The undersigned is directed to invite an attention to the provisions contained in Rule 13 of the CCS(RP) Rules, 2008, which provides for the method of fixation of pay on promotion on or after 1.1.2006 in case. inter-alia, of promotion from one grade pay to another. The Rule provides for fixation of pay by way of addition of one increment equal to 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and the existing grade pay (rounded off to the next multiple of 10) to the existing pay in the pay band and then fixing the pay in the promotional post as per the procedure prescribed therein.
2. In terms of this Ministry’s OM No. 169/2/2000-IC dated 24.11.2000, dealing with the situation whereby both the feeder and the promotional grades were placed in the identical revised pay scales based on the recommendations of the 5th Central Pay Commission, it was provided, inter-alia, that only in cases where it was not found feasible to appropriately restructure cadres in question on functional, operational and administrative considerations, extension of the benefit of fixation of pay under FR 22(I)(a)(1) could be considered on the merits of each case, provided all the conditions precedent for the grant of this benefit were fully satisfied and promotion to the post in question actually involved assumption of higher responsibilities.
3. In view of the provisions which existed prior to 1.1.2006, the matter has been considered and the President is pleased to decide that in cases of promotion from one post to another where the promotional post carries the same Grade Pay as the feeder post, the fixation of pay in such cases will be done in the manner as prescribed in Rule 13(i) of the CCS(RP) Rules, 2008, provided fixation of pay in such cases was done prior to 1.1.2006 in terms of this Ministry’s aforesaid OM No.169/2/2000-IC dated 24 11.2000.
4. In so far as the persons serving the Indian Audit and Account Department are concerned, these orders are issued in consultation with the Comptroller & Auditor General of India.

Rule 13(i) of the CCS(RP) Rules, 2008
13. Fixation of pay on promotion on or after 1.1.2006 – In
the case of promotion from one grade pay to another in the revised pay
structure, the fixation will be done as follows:-
(i) One increment equal to 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and the
existing grade pay will be computed and rounded off to the next multiple of
10. This will be added to the existing pay in the pay band. The grade pay
corresponding to the promotion post will thereafter be granted in addition
to this pay in the pay band. In cases where promotion involves change in the
pay band also, the same methodology will be followed. However, if the pay in
the pay band after adding the increment is less than the minimum of the
higher pay band to which promotion is taking place, pay in the pay band will
be stepped to such minimum.

Whether it is applicable for state govt employees
I have been granted Grade Pay of Rs. 4600/- under 3rd MACP scheme w.e.f. Aug,2009 and I am promoted as EME officer (Civ) wef june 2013 in the Grade pay of Rs. 4600/- with higher responsibilities. Should I get the benefit of one increment with payfixation.
Sir I joined the govt office february 1999 in scclae 4500 and promoted in july 2004 in 5500 scale. What option is beneficiary to me as option is from back date. And how stepping up is done as in the same promotion list one junior promoted in march 2006.
I was promoted to a higher grade pay with one additional increment because of better performance. My pay was fixed considering both promotional and additional increment in one step i.e. 3+3=6% of previous pay. Is this the correct way? Shouldn't the pay be calculated in two steps i.e. 3% for promotional pay first and then 3% for additional increment??
I was promoted from one cadre (5000-150-8000) to another cadre (5500-175-9000) on 22.03.2006 by departmental examination (held on 14.02.2005) and joined on 29.03.2006. My pay was fixed from date of promotion i.e. 29.03.2006. But, in the recommendations of VI CPC both the post were in G.P. 4200/- so both were merged from 01.01.2006 and my pay fixation was taken back. Is there any order by which I can claim my pay fixation from 29.03.2006? If so please refer the same.
Thanks in advance

I got MACP in the year 2013. Now I have got my regular promotion in February 2016 in the grade pay 4600/-. As per MACP rules there would be no fixation of pay at the time of regular promotion, only grade pay difference is given. My department is giving me the same difference in grade pay of Rs.400/- (4600-4200), however,I am being denied of my annual increment due on 01.07.2016 on earlier grade pay of Rs. 4200/-. A promotion always results in financial upgradation but my department is giving my financial loss. Kindly help

Sir,
I Joydip Reservation Supervisor-II Basic-18550/ {9300 – 34800 (GP-4200)} promoted to Console Operator(Ex Cadre)9300 – 34800 (GP-4200) Present Basic 18550/ {9300 – 34800 (GP-4200)} Date of Promotion as per CPO's letter 4/3/2013. The candidates should have passed the aptitude test in Grade 'A' or 'B' conducted by the CRIS and Viva-Voce By Concerned Railway.
Sir, Shall these candidates get the benefit of 3% hike in basic pay as per your complete judgement. If Yes, what will be the basic.
Sir,
My point is how will the pay be fixed in these two illustrations if promotion involves pay band change rather than merely grade pay change?
For example:
CASE 1 promotion(1.12.2010),
Basic pay on the date of promotion (as on 1.12.2010) : 23730 + 8000 = 31730
Promoted to : PB4 37400-67000+GP9000
CASE 2 promotion(1.02.2011),
Basic pay on the date of promotion (as on 1.02.2011) : 23730 + 8000 = 31730
Promoted to : PB4 37400-67000+GP9000
CASE 2 is mine while CASE 1 is that of my friend's. please help.
Sir,while working as Postal Assistant in Department of Post i got OTBP promotion on 1.7.1999. After this i got promotion in LSG cadre by fast track exam on 1.9.2005 in same cadre. Whether i am eligible for benefite of one increament vide finance ministry orders 2013:Jan 7 2013 om no.10/02/2011.E.III/A
Sir, While working as Postal Assistant in Department of Posts in GP 2400, I have been granted 1st MACP in 2008 to GP of Rs.2800. I got promotion to the cadre of Inspector, Posts in 2010 January after passing LDCE examination in the Grade pay of Rs.4200/-. The Inspector is a separate cadre in the Department and not in the same hierarchy grade of Postal Assistant. On promotion to Inspector post in PB-2 I have been deprived of the fixation benefit of increment in January 2010 and granted the difference of GP only on the plea that it is a regular promotion after MACPS. Kindly clarify whether I am eligible for benefit of one increment on promotion in January 2010.

I was promoted as Accounts officer wef 1-05-2009 which involved assumption of higher responsibility but because the identical Pay Band and Grade Pay I did not had any financial benifit of the Promotion. Am I also entitled to benifit of 3% in light of this order. Kindly clarify.

I have been granted Grade Pay of Rs. 4200/- under MACP scheme w.e.f. Sept,2008 and now I am going to be promoted as Assistant in the Grade pay of Rs. 4200/- should I get the benifit of one notional increment.
Sir, Is this one increment order on Promotion in same Grade pay issued by FinMin applicable to Defence Personnel?
Yes it is the one inrement order on Promotion in the Same Grade Pay issued by Min of Finance to all the CG employees. The bill can be claimed as there is no question of MACP granted/awarded to the employees. This will not affect for drawal of one one increment for carrying higher responsibilities on promotion.
